Tooth Splitting Gingernuts Recipes

Steps:

• Pre heat oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Cream the butter and the sugar.
• Add the golden syrup and the dry ingredients.
• Mix everything together and roll into little balls. Put onto a greased baking tray, pressing the balls down very slightly with a fork.
• Bake at 350°F and 180°C for 15 minutes.
• Cool on a wire rack and keep in an airtight container once cold.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease cookie sheets.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, sugar, egg, and molasses until smooth. Combine the flour and ginger; stir into the molasses mixture until well blended. Drop large teaspoonfuls of dough about 3 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes on the top shelf of your oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 280 degrees F (137 degrees C). Allow the cookies to cool, then return them to a warm oven for 10 more minutes to dry out and become crispy.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine nuts, candied ginger, cayenne pepper, salt, pepper, and sesame seeds. In a small saucepan, combine sugar and water over medium-high. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves, 3 minutes.
• Pour sugar syrup over nut mixture and toss well to combine. Arrange in a single layer on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake until nuts are golden, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let cool completely on sheet on a wire rack before breaking into bite-size pieces.

Steps:

• In a medium to large size pot slowly melt the first four ingredients (butter, sugar, golden syrup and milk) stirring constantly until all are blended together. Don't worry about dissolving every last bit of sugar.
• Remove from heat and then add baking soda and stir until dissolved. Leave to cool for 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 150°C.
• Sift in the flour and ginger and mix well. The mixture will be quite loose.
• Roll into small balls and put onto a baking tray. Flatten with the heel of the hand, allowing room for spreading.
• Bake in a slow oven, 150C - 13-15 minutes. I bake these on the rack above the middle of the oven. Simply because my oven tends to be a bit hot on the bottom.
